7 Days Budget DIY Solo Trip in Spring Season Taiwan... April 10 to 18, 2023
The last 600m (especially the last 300m) hiking distance to summit assault is usually early morning and crowded. I changed my plan to do it in afternoon because I have a feeling it's freaking hard, I don't want to be in hurry and I want to be alone on the summit. There are chain support which 90% of the time I depend my life on them lol, due to lots of slippery, lose rocks and high steps required aside of the AMS effect, very windy and narrow trail.
The trail is well defined and clearly marked with distance markers every half KM showing the distance travelled and the remaining distance to Paiyun Lodge/summit. The trail leading from the trailhead at Tatajia Anbu (2600m) to Paiyun Lodge (3400m) is 8.5km long. This section of the trail is relatively gentle. The trail from Paiyun Lodge to the summit (3,952m) is 2.4km long. The section of the trail is relatively steep especially the last 500m where some scrambling is required.
Mt. Jade trail markers shows the distance, elevation and sometimes mobile signal availability.
